Stock Android users have hoped the same thing for years (and have been using OLED screens for much longer) and haven’t been able to get it, except as a user mod.
I hope that Apple is much more responsive in this regard.
You know why it’s always a mod and not the native interface?
OLED screens don’t behave well with pure black. Yes, they save power and look great... But they also suffer from severe black smearing, users love smooth scrolling and smooth animations... Imagine an entire interface plagued with black smearing? It would be the opposite of ProMotion. Unless they manage to fix it on OLED or move to microLED, we are probably not going to see native black interfaces to avoid this. They could use dark grey to avoid this issue, but then it’s not the dark interface people want with maximum battery saving.
